Specialists are endeavoring to decide how a case of ammunition tumbled from a military helicopter before slamming through the top of a school.
Ysleta Independent School District says nobody was harmed when the reserve hammered into a working at Parkland Elementary School in El Paso, Texas, on Thursday evening.
The case punctured an opening in the rooftop upon effect and caused a power blackout in part of the building, authorities said.
The school stands meters from the edge of United States Army base Fort Bliss, home to the first Armored Division.
Colonel Jay Hopkins, an administrator of the division's aeronautics detachment, apologized for the occurrence.
I'm to a great degree sorry for any harm done to the neighboring primary school, and I am appreciative that nobody was harmed," he said.
"The episode is under scrutiny."
Authorities at Fort Bliss say they will now reassess flight designs as a major aspect of the examination concerning how the ammunition box tumbled from the helicopter.
In December a year ago, the US Marine Corps started to rage in Japan when a window tumbled off one of its helicopters mid-flight, falling onto a school playing field and harming a kid on the island of Okinawa.
